Lets, 4 years with a suite pending after lawyer was called from day 1.

Your going to get screwed over either way, dont risk it more.

My neighbor is a middle aged man, decent shape. He was driving home one day and went to make a turn, he signaled, started turning and was hit by a handicaped person at 60+ miles.

A cop was one the rode. The man has hurt (no blood, might need surgery for some dislocated vertibre. deffenatley back problems for the rest of his life), the womens car(the handicaped that hit him) was totaled.

She tried to blame him, with the cop seeing everything, of course. There were garage sales going on, peole saw that she wasnt even looking at the road and came over.

But he was smart and went straight to the hospital so every thing is documented and his son went straight to the lawyer when he heard.

Hes still waiting. The bills are still pileing up.

Your going to get screwed here, even if your a decent person the other guy probably isnít, his lawyer definitely isnít. No one wants to pay the bill, insurance companies arent going to help(well, they might actuallt take care of you but your rate might go up).

You dont have to sue for a billion dollars or anything, but you have to do something. Play the paper work game...

You can tell i read slashdot too much, im sounding like a lawyer wannabe. guess theres a couple around here.

Dude, everybody's back or neck hurts after getting backended. Most of the time, it isn't whiplash. Most of the time, it's just some stress. My folks got back ended, my mother's neck hurt for two days; just two days. Either way, for the next five months, we kept getting calls from chiropractors and lawyers. I took it upon myself to call each and every one of the lawyers back and tell them to $$$$ off.

Watch what you say, she could use that as evidence that you had sexually stereotyped her as a bad driver and stuck your car deliberately in her path to prove your point, thus justifying her multi-million law suit against you for sexual discrimination.
